    This game tries to be a mix of some different games. The combination of strategy and RPG is ok, but this game lacks in so many things that it makes no fun, sorry! I am an old fan of RPGs, strategy games and adventures.

    Pro:
    -Low price

    Contra:
    -poor level design
    -poor handling
    -poor sound
    -you can't see the items
    -you can't see the equipment on your heroes
    -no journal
    -no named save games
    -no maps
    -no quest log
    -no colors
    -no fun

    I don't regret the 5 bucks for it but there is no need to finish the game because it's boring.

    Grimrock is only 15 bucks but worth 10 times paper sorcerer. Sorry, but that's my 2 cents.    … Expand

    If you enjoy tinkering with your equipment, skills and stats and you don’t mind some old school silliness, give Paper Sorcerer a chance. [05/2014, p.55]

    An old school RPG that is simple in its mechanics, yet deep and elaborate. Eventually, the game becomes slightly repetitive, and some bits and pieces would deserve to be debugged. Nevertheless, the game handles everything well at least, and for a $5 price tag it delivers a great deal of fun.

    Paper overcomes these minor quibbles because it's just good fun. [Apr 2014, p.83]
